Diamond Changed the way it reports sales, including advance reorders and reorders to the numbers, as
of the stats for February 2003 shipping dates. The above reflects the adjusted numbers.

KEY:
Title & Issue = Title of the book and issue number. SF=Secret Files, ARC=Archive
Rank = The rank by quantity (total number of books) pre-sold via Diamond.
Sales = The approximate number of books pre-sold via Diamond.
Dollar = The rank by dollar amount (number of books times price) pre-sold via Diamond.
Index = The number of books sold in relation to "Batman" (Batman's index is 100).
Item Code = The Diamond item number, if known. The first five digits indicate month and year
solicited.
Ship Date = The date the book shipped, if known. May not be exact date the book arrived in
most stores.
Cover Date = The date on the front of the book.
Price = The suggested retail price for the book.
NOTES:
1) All Sales figures are APPROXIMATE. They include pre-orders through Diamond to the North American
direct market only. Actual sales may be significantly higher. Re-orders can add 2-10% and
newsstand 20-40%, depending on the book. Foreign sales can add another 20%.
2) There are three different months for every listing, the month solicited, the shipping month, and
the cover date. Most sales charts, such as Wizard and Diamond's top 100, use the shipping month.
I use the shipping month as the book's month in the yearly average chart.
3) Archives and Trade Paperback ranks are from a different list.
4) With issue #40, Aquaman jumped into One Year Later, and the title of Aquaman became Aquaman: Sword
of Atlantis.
5) Aquaman #40 sales include the variant cover (DEC05 8016) but not the reprint.

KEY:
Title & Issue = Title of the book and issue number. SF=Secret Files, ANN=Annual, 1M=One Million,
LEGEND/DCU = Legends of the DC Universe, AQUABOY/LAG = Sins of Youth: Aquaboy/Lagoon
Man
Rank = The rank by quantity (total number of books) pre-sold via Diamond.
Sales = The approximate number of books pre-sold via Diamond.
Dollar = The rank by dollar amount (number of books times price) pre-sold via Diamond.
Index = The number of books sold in relation to "Batman" (Batman's index is 100).
Recently, translates to approximately 480-520 actual issues sold.
Item Code = The Diamond item number, if known. The first five digits indicate month and year
solicited.
Ship Date = The date the book shipped, if known. May not be exact date the book arrived in
most stores.
Cover Date = The date on the front of the book.
Price = The suggested retail price for the book.
NOTES:
1) All Sales figures are APPROXIMATE. They include pre-orders through Diamond to the direct market
only. Actual sales may be significantly higher. Re-orders can add 2-10% and newsstand 20-40%,
depending on the book.
2) There are three different months for every listing, the month solicited, the shipping month, and
the cover date. Most sales charts, such as Wizard and Diamond's top 100, use the shipping month.
I use the shipping month as the book's month in the yearly average chart.
3) Ranks in paranthesis are corrected ranks (ranks that include Marvel Comics and other distributors).
4) As of August 1996, Marvel Comics was figured into the rankings, which accounts for the rather
large drop.
5) Crossovers are: X0 = Zero Hour, X1 = Underworld Unleashed, X2 = Final Night, X3 = Genesis,
X4 = Millennium Giants, X5 = DC One Million, X6 = Day of Judgment
6) Peter David wrote the book for issues #1-46. After four fill-in issues by Abnett and Lanning
(#47-49 and the One Million issue), Larsen took over for #50-62, and Dan Jurgens took over for
#63-75.
